Star Trek: A Time to Kill and A Time to Heal
Last year, I decided to finally go back and read the nine-book “A Time To…” series, originally published in 2004. This series came out after the final TNG movie, Nemesis, and was designed to help explain many of that film’s choices regarding the status of th
Josh Reviews The 40-Year-Old Version
Radha Blank wrote, directed, produced, and stars in in The 40-Year-Old Version, a film that I loved and included on my list of my favorite movies of 2020. This wonderfully off-beat and moving film centers on a fictionalized Radha Blank. Despite her early success as a playwright,
Josh Reviews How To with John Wilson
One of my very favorite TV shows of 2020 was How To with John Wilson. This was one of my absolute favorite discoveries of 2020, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! This bizarre, beautiful documentary series is hard to describe, and I think it’s best to go into it knowing
Josh Reviews Happy Happy Joy Joy: The Ren & Stimpy Story
I vividly remember discovering The Ren & Stimpy Show, back when it first started airing on Nickelodeon in 1991. I was already a huge animation fan, but this hilarious, disgusting, absolutely bonkers cartoon blew my mind. I loved it immediately. I watched those initial six ep
Josh Reviews Ted Lasso Season One!
In the Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso, Jason Sudeikis stars as the incredibly up-beat Ted Lasso, an American football coach who, improbably, winds up coaching an English Premiere League football (what Americans call soccer) team. I remember seeing lots of ads for Ted Lasso when the se
“To Be… Or Not… To Be” — Remembering Christopher Plummer and Other News Around the Net
Soon after I posted my previous “News Around the Net” round-up, the news broke that Christopher Plummer had passed away. Mr. Plummer was a tremendous talent. He’s appeared in so many films which I love, including (but by no means limited to) Murder by Decree, 12
Josh Reviews Tenet
I’ve been a huge Christopher Nolan film ever since watching Memento back in 2000. I think that Tenet is the first Nolan film since 2002’s Insomnia that I didn’t see on the big screen. I desperately wanted to, of course, but I didn’t think it wise to go to a
Josh Reviews One Night in Miami
I only just recently finished listing my favorite movies of 2020, and already I’ve seen one of the first great movies of 2021: One Night in Miami. The film is a fictionalized version of what might have happened on the night in February, 1965, when Cassius Clay, Jim Brown, Malcol
News Around the Net
I’m excited that season two of Ron Moore’s Apple TV+ series, For All Mankind, is coming soon! Here’s a trailer: I quite enjoyed the first season, so I’m eager for more. Here’s our first look at The Nevers, which was supposed to be Joss Whedon’s re

Thanks for reading my lists of my favorite movies of 2020 and my favorite TV series of 2020! Here now are my favorite comic book series of 2020! First let’s start with some terrific graphic novels: Superman Smashes the Klan (by Gene Luen Yang and Gurihiru) — Based on the c
